Please help Michael acquire adequate legal counsel

Hi all!
We are currently working to raise funds to help Michael hire an attorney who can provide adequate legal representation.  He has been assigned a Public Defender, but unfortunately, the Public Defender's office doesn't have the time or resources to properly represent Michael. The Public Defender assigned to Michael's case graduated from law school a year ago and has only been practicing law for 6 or 7 months.
THIS FUND IS NOT ABOUT MICHAEL'S GUILT/INNOCENCE OR TAKING SIDES IN THE SITUATION! We're merely trying to ensure that Michael has proper legal counsel. 
Michael's legal fees could end up being as high as $5000, but at this time we are only trying to raise $2500 to hire an attorney. All donations made to this fund will be used solely for this purpose. Funds will NOT be used to post bail.
Please help by contributing as much as you can: $5, $20, $50, or more.  Anything you can give will be greatly appreciated. 
Also, please consider sharing this fund with all of your friends on social media.
CONTRIBUTIONS CAN BE MADE ANONYMOUSLY!
